Chapter 848 requirements
After walking down the stairs a few steps, Shang Jianyao suddenly said "oops".
"What's wrong?" Jiang Baimian asked sideways, "You can talk now."
Shang Jianyao clenched his right fist and slapped his left palm and said:
"We forgot that we have another question for Esther!"
Being reminded by him, Jiang Baimian suddenly remembered that Esther was involved in another matter:
Some of the goods sent by Smith's "rootless" team to the Ice Ruins came from Esther!
In other words, even if he is not the owner of the suspected collaborator of the Eighth Research Institute, he should have met that person or know some clues.
The latter two situations are more likely, after all, Esther only provided some of the supplies, and was simply found by Kittis, which is inconsistent with the caution of erasing memories on a large scale.
Jiang Baimian immediately turned around and said to Sandro on the other side:
"Please take us up to see Mr. Esther again, we forgot a crucial issue just now, which directly affects whether Mr. Esther's regrets can be made up."
The last half of her sentence deliberately exaggerated and forced her to contact, so as not to be rejected by Sandro and have to do something else.
In fact, if you really want to dig deeper, there is nothing wrong with what she said:
Whether the former can be investigated clearly will indeed affect the exploration of the "Old Tune Team" in Konimes, and the exploration of the "Old Adjustment Team" in Konimis is undoubtedly directly related to whether Ester's regrets can be made up.
The reason why Jiang Baimian forgot to ask about the goods just now was because he fell into deep thinking about the term "son of the year".
Because it was Jiang Baimian who was talking, not Shang Jianyao, Sandro thought for a few seconds and said:
"Okay."
He was always wary of the influence of Shang Jianyao's words.
Turning around, Sandro led Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao back to the fourth floor.
He didn't go directly to Esther's room, stayed at the last guard point, told the matter, and asked his colleagues to report to the boss instead of him.
The guard took a few steps to the outside of the sun, curled his fingers and tapped them three times.
No one responded.
He knocked three more times.
Still no one responded.
Dong dong dong!
He tapped three times again, adding some strength.
Finally, Esther's slightly low tired voice came from the sun-exposed room:
"What's the matter?"
Hearing Esther's response, Shang Jianyao breathed a sigh of relief and said to himself happily:
"Fortunately, nothing happened.
"I thought there was a coincidence, and the key witness died suddenly on the spot and was silenced."
These words attracted sideways glances from Sandro and several guards, some of whom were even a little angry.
If you can't speak, don't say it...... Jiang Baimian muttered.
Frankly speaking, she was a little worried just now.
A similar situation often occurs in Old World entertainment materials - the protagonist team finally found a clue and locked the key witness, but by mistake, he went one step late, and the key witness was silenced by the murderer.
When the guard who knocked on the door repeated Sandro's words, Esther was silent for a while and said:
"Let them in."
The fatigue in his tone made Jiang Baimian feel that he was disturbing the patient.
In the sun-exposed house, Esther seemed to have adjusted her posture, currently only leaning slightly against the back of the recliner, and covered with a quilt on her lower body.
He looked at Jiang Baimian and said:
"It's still the same as just now, you ask."
Jiang Baimian asked politely:
"Mr. Esther, did you recently provide a shipment of goods to Smith's 'Far Traveler' trading group?"
Esther showed a look of sudden realization:
"The shipment that mysteriously disappeared in the ice field?"
"Yes." Jiang Baimian nodded, and Shang Jianyao also made the same move.
Esther smiled slightly:
"I did provide some supplies to the 'Far Traveler' merchant group, but it only accounted for a small part of that shipment."
"What kind of materials, who bought them, and who asked you to hand them over to the 'Far Traveler' merchant group?" Jiang Baimian asked in one breath.
She deliberately showed that the "old tune team" did not suspect that Esther was the real owner of the goods, lest Esther be real, but instead aroused the other party's vigilance, maybe something accident would happen on the spot.
In short, get a certain answer first, then analyze the truth and falsehood, and finally consider whether to make friends forcibly.
Esther smiled and asked:
"Why should I answer your questions?
"What kind of reward can you provide this time?"
He added an accent to the remuneration, indicating that it was not a matter of money.
"What do you want?" Jiang Baimian didn't know much about Esther, and he couldn't analyze where the other party's human nature was weak.
If Esther had to say that she planned to start with some medical agents and biological agents invented by "Pangu Biologics", after all, Esther was old and her health did not seem to be very good, and the team of Shang Jianyao's father also exchanged similar items for information.
Although the "White Knights" are also very strong in the corresponding fields, and Esther is rich and has a certain status, it is not difficult to get some potions, but the things of "Pangu Creatures" still have their own characteristics, and sometimes, foreign monks are indeed more good at chanting.
Of course, this will lead to the identity of the "old tune group" being exposed to a certain extent.
Esther seemed to be lost in her own thoughts, and her eyes were a little out of focus.
After a while, he said seriously:
"My request is that after you get the information you want to get on these two matters, leave Gersterburg immediately, don't stay for a second longer, and don't mix anything.
"Of course, it would be better if you went to Koningmis after leaving Gerstburg."
This requirement...... He couldn't have known that wherever our group came, it would lead to a lot of things and cause a lot of storms, and he wanted to send us out of the country as soon as possible for safety, right? Jiang Baimian felt a little strange, and agreed indifferently:
"No problem."
The "Old Investigation Team" came to Gesterburg to investigate the situation of Shang Yao's father's team and the hidden personnel of the Eighth Research Institute!
Without waiting for Aster to speak, Jiang Baimian added:
"But in the process of investigating these two things, if someone provokes us and something comes to us, we cannot sacrifice ourselves, just escape."
What she said was that we would concentrate on our own investigations, not mind our own business, and leave as soon as we completed the task, and nothing else could be guaranteed.
Esther was silent for a while, nodded and said:
"Yes.
"I believe in your promise, at least so far, you have behaved quite trustworthy, and the corresponding intelligence actually has nothing to do with me, and telling you doesn't affect anything."
He turned to say:
"Smith should have told you that in the case of the disappearance of the goods, the relevant personnel all had memory loss. There are awakened among you who certainly know what that means.
"I'm not an exception, that part of my memory has also been erased."
Speaking of this, Esther smiled slightly:
"However, this is not contradictory to the details that I still know about."
Is this finding a way to avoid the impact of "deleting memories", or is it that it was indeed deleted at the time, but later restored that part of the memory through certain methods? Jiang Baimian tried to understand the hidden meaning of Esther's words.
She felt that if Shang Jianyao could speak, she would definitely ask "why" at this time, but the other party would definitely not answer.
Esther continued:
"What I provided to the 'Far Traveler' merchant group was some rare metals.
"The person who paid for the goods and entrusted me with this was Mohr."
"More? That intelligence merchant?" Jiang Baimian has been repeating these names a lot recently.
Esther nodded.
"Yes.
"As for where he got the money from and why he bought such a batch of goods, I don't know the answer, and I don't want to know, I am just a businessman, I got the right price, received enough payment, and provided the goods."
"Understood." Jiang Baimian nodded slightly.
As far as Esther's answer is concerned, she has found no signs of lying at the moment.
However, she has always had a bit of an eye and will not believe it so easily, but she does not plan to get Esther's "friendship" now, so that he has no reservations, after all, the other party is obviously wary of Shang Jianyao's "thinking implantation".
Moreover, Esther is mysterious and should have some trump cards in itself, and if you really want to force "making friends", it is difficult to say what the final outcome will be.
Caution is the most important, Jiang Baimian plans to "visit" the intelligence merchant Mohr first, and then decide whether to return to Esther based on his feedback.
At that time, it should be a secret infiltration and complete the control by surprise.
After bidding farewell to Esther for the second time, Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao returned to their jeep under Sandro's surveillance, and Bai Chen drove the vehicle out of the parking place.
"The son of the year?" After listening to the team leader's narration, Long Yuehong frowned and repeated this term.
Shang Jianyao immediately laughed:
"What's so strange about this?
"Some years have incarnations, and it is normal for multiple human sons to have multiple sons."
"From this point of view, it is really the son of the old man who sheltered Konymis so that he would not suffer a devastating blow when the old world was destroyed......" Long Yuehong felt that the logic was still relatively smooth.
Shang Jianyao glanced at him:
"Aren't 'Zhuang Sheng's' hometown of Linhe Village and Taicheng and Dajiang City, where he studied, also destroyed?
"He is a real bearer, not a son of some year."
